Embedded Software Engineer

Tomorrow.io is hiring an Embedded Software Engineer to join our Space & Sensors team. In this role, you’ll design, develop, and maintain Linux-based embedded systems that power next-generation radar and remote-sensing technologies across space-borne and terrestrial platforms
.

Your mission will be to build reliable, maintainable embedded Linux platforms that enable Tomorrow.io’s electronic products to operate accurately and consistently in demanding real-world environments. You’ll collaborate closely with hardware, FPGA, systems, and application software engineers
, translating sensing and space requirements into robust drivers, board support packages (BSPs), and production-ready platforms.

This role offers strong opportunities for cross-functional growth — looking down the stack to understand how RTL and hardware interact with embedded software, and up the stack to support and enable application-layer systems.

Please note that this position is a hybrid role, and the team collaborates in person twice weekly at our Golden, Colorado office.

• Design, develop, and maintain Linux drivers
  , BSPs
  , and Yocto-based Linux distributions
  .
• Lead hardware bring-up
  , system integration, and low-level debugging on custom hardware platforms.
• Collaborate with hardware, FPGA, and systems engineers to ensure cohesive end-to-end system behavior.
• Support application-layer software teams by delivering stable, well-documented embedded platforms.
• Debug and diagnose complex system issues using JTAG/SWD, logic analyzers, and Linux debugging tools
  .
• Contribute to cross-disciplinary discussions and continuous improvement of processes and products.

• 3+ years of hands‑on experience in embedded software development.
• Strong experience developing Embedded Linux systems on custom hardware
  .
• Hands‑on expertise in Linux kernel and user‑space driver development
  .
• Proven experience creating and maintaining Board Support Packages (BSPs).
• Deep familiarity with Yocto / Open Embedded
  , including build system customization.
• Solid understanding of Linux internals
  , particularly on ARM‑based embedded systems
  .
• Proficiency in C (primary) and C++.
• Experience with cross‑compilation, build systems, and debugging tools
  , including gcc, gdb, cmake, strace, perf, valgrind, and QEMU.
• Comfort working with Git
  , CI/CD workflows
  , and scripting/automation using Bash and Python
  .
• Exposure to FPGAs and HDLs (Verilog or VHDL), or a strong interest in learning RTL concepts.
• Collaborative, detail‑oriented, and structured
  , with openness to feedback across disciplines
